JAG -You're probably right - I haven't done an analysis on that or any other scratchoff game, and, without the ticket data indicating the number of tickets printed, payouts, etc., wouldn't even try. But, given the way the factors operate in such an analysis, you're more likely to draw 70 winners than 130. With the odds being as they are, for instance, you're more likely to draw zero winners than 458 simply because there are more non-winning tickets than winners, although either event isn't anyth

Thank you much for that reply about the math johnph77. I appreciate it. I wish all states would tell it like that.Just to be sure, when the odds are 1:4.58, does that mean out of every 45 tickets, 10 (on average) will be winners?

Where would you draw the line?Reply
Interesting. I was just looking at scratch tickets in my state last night. I didn't notice any $5 or $10 ticket with odds at 2 points. Lowest I saw was a $10 ticket at 1:3.70.... maybe when NY has $20 tickets (not that I want a $20 ticket).

A person came in the store where I work at and bought $120.00 dollars worth of tickets. They all were 20.00 dollar tickets and everyone of them were losers all on the same game. On which the overall odds on them are 1 in 2.75...

Maverick -In a word, no. By buying 4 tickets you've placed yourself on the other end of the odds - in this case 1::0.85 - but that in and of itself will not guarantee you a winning ticket.glj

If a scratch ticket says Overall odds of winning on this ticket are 1 in 3.70 , does that mean if somebody buys 4 tickets of that game, that one of the tickets should pay back something?

PB from last drawing: 2This is the 12th time the #2 has been drawn in the 1/42 matrix.The 11 draws directly following the #2 have produced these red Powerballs: 5, 14, 15, 23, 23, 25, 25, 29, 30, 31, 38.Odds win 8-3 over evens.A last digit of 5 is popular.7 of the 11 have been in a narrow band of 23-31.Good luck sticking with or bucking the trend.

All the basics....sums, evens/odds, deltas. And a few wacky ideas I've had not really related to the numbers. You can make an indicator out of any dvent...you just have to get lucky...just once. The proof either will, or will not be, in the pudding.
